Chapter 613

The first leg of the Champions League 14 final came.

Liverpool will face Chelsea at Anfield.

At the press conference before the game, situ Yunbing expressed cautious views on the game.

"Throughout the season, we saw that Mourinho kept a low profile. Even when his team ranked second in the league, he claimed that there was no hope of winning the championship. He compared Liverpool to a sports car and his team to a pony. The advantage in the Premier League does not mean that Liverpool can win the Champions League knockout, which is not objective.

The cup emphasizes defense, while Mourinho is good at defense.

This is Chelsea's advantage. It may be the most difficult battle we encounter in the Champions League, because it is mentality that determines the final result of the game, not strength.

We should be fully aware and meet a bitter battle. "

Mourinho really has a good character. Compared with his arrogance when he came to the Premier League ten years ago, he has been low-key and humble at Chelsea more this season.

Less aggressive in the past.

Before his departure for Anfield, he said: "Chelsea should be prepared to be beaten when they go to Anfield. At present, no team in European football can retreat from Anfield. The first leg is very important. If we lose one goal, even if we return to home, we will have great psychological pressure. If we lose two goals, We were basically eliminated. Not losing the ball is the key. I hope the team can do that at Anfield

The managers of both teams attach great importance to the competition between the teams without mentioning the past grievances.

This is a positive phenomenon, which makes the competition simple and purely competitive.

No matter between Liverpool and Chelsea, or between situ Yunbing and Mourinho, there are a lot of resentments, but now putting down the burden of those additional factors can make the two teams focus more on their own play and pursue the desired results.

In the evening of April 2, the Chelsea team arrived at Anfield stadium.

The Red Army fans entered early and organized an orderly cheering momentum in an attempt to put pressure on the visiting Chelsea.

There is basically no suspense about Liverpool's defending League title this season. It only needs to get three points in the remaining six rounds to declare its success. It is only a matter of time.

Therefore, Liverpool fans naturally expect that without the burden of the league, the team can concentrate on creating greater glory in the European game!

Situ Yunbing said seriously to every player in the dressing room before the game: "Chelsea will come up with their strongest defense to limit our attack. I've been talking about mentality in the past few days. It's going to come in handy at this time. We don't mess around because of our opponents and don't fantasize about how many goals we have to score!

We should also try our best to create threats and score goals on the basis of ensuring that we don't lose the ball!

Remember, the Champions League is different from the league. If you want to pass, the premise is not to lose!

Fight with the belief of victory, but fight with the thinking of invincibility.

We want to prove that we deserve to be in the top four of the Champions League, so we have to prove that we are stronger than Chelsea in mentality! "

The Liverpool generals nodded to understand.

Situ Yunbing did not give the team chicken blood. At this stage, this stage, relying on a cavity of blood, will have a good performance, but it may not be able to go further with the greatest probability.

When situ Yunbing walked into the stadium, he shook hands with Mourinho on the sidelines, and they nodded to each other tacitly. The first leg of the Champions League 14 final may have been recognized before the game, and the degree of ornamental excellence must be very low, but it does not prevent the Premier League civil war from getting the attention of a large number of Premier League Fans.

Chelsea's goal this season is very clear. Mourinho has never listed himself as a popular player in running in the team and re adapting to the competitive environment of the Premier League. He knows that he will die miserably under a high profile. It's better to lay a foundation for the next year.

However, the Champions League has never lacked dreamers. In particular, the knockout only needs 180 minutes or 210 minutes of fate, rather than the continuation of 38 minutes. In this stage, in a sense, everyone is equal, and the key is whether we can enter the threshold.

Obviously, Chelsea has played an important role in this feast in the past ten years. No matter whether the outside world is optimistic about them or not, they will not be a dragon trap to study with the crown prince.

The most typical is to reach the finals under the background of changing the coach in 2008. In the same 12 years, the coach also eliminated Barcelona with the old, weak and disabled soldiers to enter the finals.

Now Chelsea led by Mourinho will devote all their energy to the Champions League. If they pass Liverpool, this unprecedented morale will make them one of the favourites to win the championship in an instant.

Before the two rounds of competition, situ Yunbing always reminded himself to guard against arrogance and impatience. He can't underestimate the enemy's carelessness for a moment, otherwise he will be on the verge of success!

When the starting players of the two teams walked into the stadium, situ Yunbing looked a little dignified.

The cheering momentum at Anfield is earth shaking, and the fans are as enthusiastic as ever, looking forward to a wonderful game.

"Good evening, dear viewers. Welcome to the Anfield stadium in Liverpool, England. The first leg of the Champions League knockout 14 final will start here.

Liverpool play Chelsea at home.

This is the Premiership civil war in the Champions League!

No matter whether the speculation about the conspiracy of UEFA draw is true or not, the two teams will fight for a place in the top four!

Liverpool's performance this season is stronger than that of last season. With the enhancement of the strength of three strong reinforcements in the summer, Liverpool has won the first place in the league. Now Manchester City and Chelsea are up to 16 points ahead of the second place. They only need to get another 3 points to lock in the league title in advance. There are six rounds of the Premier League. It can be said that the Premier League title is already in their pocket.

Chelsea have been stumbling on all fronts this season.

The team reconstruction after Mourinho's return seems to be slow, but Chelsea's performance is better than that of the same period last year!

At least they are in the top three of the league and in the last eight of the Champions League.

I just don't know what Chelsea will do in front of Liverpool. The two teams have met in the Premier League. Liverpool lost a goal at Stamford Bridge, which may make Chelsea fans full of confidence in Mourinho.

Well, let's look at the starting lists of the two teams today.

Liverpool started 433 today

Goalkeeper: telstegen.

Defenders: azpiliquetta, Van Dijk, benatia, Robertson.

Midfield: Cantor, Gerrard, Camero.

Forwards: Gareth bell, Suarez, cutinho.

Liverpool's starting lineup is not surprising.

But Chelsea's starting lineup will be a surprise.

Mourinho played a 541 formation away from home.

Goalkeeper: Cech.

Defenders: Ivanovic, Terry, David Louis, Cahill, Ashley Cole.

Midfield: Ramirez, Mikel, Lampard, William.

Striker: Azar.

Yes, Mourinho has five defenders, four midfielders with certain defensive ability, and the striker has not been on the center, but on Azar, who has relatively free movement.

Obviously, Mourinho is going to defend away from home and ensure that he can retreat from home in the first leg!

Hehe, today Liverpool will play a difficult battle they have never experienced!

I don't know if they will be surprised by Chelsea's squad.

The kick-off ceremony before the game is coming to an end. Let's enjoy the confrontation between the two teams in the first leg of the Champions League 14 final! "

Mourinho and situ Yunbing stood in the coach's command area respectively. Both of them looked serious and seemed to have the spirit of killing when the war came.

Situ Yunbing thought that Mourinho would set up an iron bucket array, but he didn't think he would set it so thoroughly!

Rather than give this formation a high sounding "541" hat, it's better to be simple, generous and calm, and use "901" to describe a more appropriate image.

He has no doubt that the guard line will never go two yards outside the restricted area line, and the midfield line will never be more than five yards away from the guard line!

As for the released Azar, where he likes to go, if the blind cat catches a dead mouse, Chelsea will win the grand prize!

Some people will say that Mourinho is a counsellor, but standing in situ Yunbing's position, this is the master duel!

Because of giving Chelsea a hundred tactics, this may be the only one that has the hope of quitting at Anfield!

Other choices will be inevitable!

When the referee sounded the whistle at the beginning of the game, Chelsea started to retreat with the attack of Liverpool, and then launched double-layer defense between 20 and 30 yards in front of the goal. More troops are concentrated in the middle, even at the back line, and there is still David Louis who is relatively free to help defense at will, This can also avoid the disastrous consequences of Louis's habit of running and jumping to the defense.

Liverpool encountered the tight defense of the other three layers at the beginning, which was really stressful.

Because this will make them feel at a loss that they have no way to start. Once the frontline players go to the front of the restricted area, they are equal to throwing themselves into the net, and the lines and angles are blocked. On the contrary, the midfield players don't know how to develop the attack. Risky passing can't guarantee the success rate. It's nothing more than handing over the ball to the opponent.

So in the end, we can only start from the side, which is the way Liverpool have been strengthening and honing for more than a month.

When Gareth bell crossed the bottom of Ashley Cole from the right, he had no choice but to cross, because the Chelsea defence retreated and there was no space for him to break through or cut into the restricted area.

Gareth Bell's Cross was unexpectedly cleared by Cahill.

Liverpool immediately wanted to carry out a two-point counter attack and launch a continuous attack. Unexpectedly, Lampard directly volleyed a big foot to kick the ball into Liverpool's half.

Although there is no threat, it also has enough buffer time for Chelsea's defense adjustment and re deployment, and Liverpool will launch a new attack from behind!

Attack, attack.

Liverpool are going to attack Chelsea today!
